UPDATE 0.3.53 - Patch Notes

Ok, I can tell you we did not get much in terms of rest this week.

As you probably saw, we had to roll back yesterday's update 0.3.51 as it seems it caused some of you be locked outside of the game.

So we ended up with the following situation

We had 3 kinds of players

• Players that the game would launch and had no crashes with both versions 0.3.4 and 0.3.51 (this is where we all of us here at Cayplay were, which makes it much harder to figure out what causes the other scenarios)
• Players that version 0.3.40 would work but when updating to 0.3.51 it would not
• Players that version 0.3.51 would work but not 0.3.40

Isn't making games so much fun and relaxing?

Anyway, we always try our best to give you guys the best experience we can offer. We believe this version should work as intended for everyone.

But just in case we have left 2 versions available to everyone. 0.3.40 and 0.3.51
To swap to any of these versions, you can right click on the game name in your library and choose properties (or its equivalent in your language). In the new window, choose "Game Versions & Betas" and choose the version you want. Steam will initiate an "update" (even tho it is actually going back a version).


KNOW ISSUES

• It seems the latest Windows 11 updates have caused SAC (Smart App control) to block lots of apps that use the Unity engine (and yes, this includes games much bigger than ours). We are currently looking for solutions and even working with other game studios to find a solution for all of us.
• During our tests today, we saw a case where trying to load a game, the cursor disappeared. Going back to main menu with Esc and choosing load again seems to fix it. We found the cause but did not want to delay this update anymore (for reference any time we do a new build, it might take up to 8 hours specially if we change too much how some parts of the game render)
  

BUG FIXES

• Game should launch properly for everyone with no long waiting time
• The situation where the names of visitors and staff should no longer be so bright that is blinding
• Snow piles are no longer interactible unless built

IMPROVEMENTS

• A couple more optimizations for better performance
• Fixed some typos in the Polish language

We are already working on not only fixing some issues mentioned by you all, but also adding new features. So stay tuned.
